Thanks for the report, makeRegexpSafe was not escaping "[". Does the
following workaround fix the problem (without introducing additional
ones)?
assignInNamespace("makeRegexpSafe", ns = "utils", value = function(s)
{
s <- gsub(".", "\\.", s, fixed = TRUE)
s <- gsub("?", "\\?", s, fixed = TRUE)
s <- gsub("[", "\\[", s, fixed = TRUE)
s <- gsub("]", "\\]", s, fixed = TRUE) # necessary?
s
})
(with 2.6.x, replace "utils" with "rcompgen")
